Daytime Friends

I have a night-time lover, but it dawned upon me recently that I don't really have many friends who live in the same state. I've been here in the south now for almost two years, and I've yet to play a round of golf. I've been out for beers twice. Once when I took a job and then again when I quit said job.

I'm just curious as to how people develop new friendships when they're starting over in a new city. I'd like to join a softball team or something. Aside from work-related acquiantances, though, I truly don't know anyone.

Well, as a stringer, I have a lot of free nights as well. So the title probably should have been more general. I did meet one person today who could have been a friend. She wore a black skirt and seemed a little strung-out. After buying a pack of smokes, she walked across four lanes of traffic with her leather satchel on her shoulder. According to a gas station employee, " she said she worked strictly late night, early morning."
